Talisman Emperor
Chapter 1645 – Deep Sadness
Due to the arrival of the man and woman, the atmosphere inside the entire hall suddenly became very quiet.
Everyone's gazes had fused on the young man with purple pupils and silver hair, and their expressions more or less carried a trace of shock.
On the other hand, by the time Chen Xi's gaze descended on the woman, she was unable to move it anymore.
His pupils widened while his heart could not resist trembling. Even his body had stiffened at this moment, and he was stunned on the spot.
The woman wore a black dress, and soft springy skin, and her jet black hair was carried with wooden hairpins, causing her clear and pretty oval face to unfold.
She has a graceful bearing and a slender waist. As he stood there leisurely, he naturally exuded a form of calm and natural beauty, and he was like a pure snow lotus on a cliff.
Zhen Liuqing!
Chen Xi swore that the woman he was seeing right now was really Zhen Liuqing because her appearance and makeup was as simple and elegant as ever.
However, Chen Xi had never expected that after so many years of parting, they he would actually meet him in Phoenix Perch City within the Ancient God Domain. Other than causing him shock, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, leaving him stunned on the spot.
Scenes from the past flashed through his mind.
Years ago when they were heading to the Dark Reverie of the Primeval Battlefield, Zhen Liuqing had been taken away by his elder brother, Heaven Trampler. From that day onward, no matter if it was in Dark Reverie or after she entered the Eternal Dimension, Chen Xi had never met her again.
In the past, he had known about the Divine Abyss of Darkness within the Prehistoric Ruins, and he knew that Zhen Liuqing and his master, Daoist Dao Que lived there. However, when he headed there to look for her, he found out from the Heaven Trampler that Zhen Liuqing had left with their master, Daoist Dao Que, a long time ago.
Then, after becoming the Dean of the Dao Emperor Academy, Chen Xi did not give up looking for Zhen Liuqing. Unfortunately, he looked like he was yawning from the world, and he was impossible to find ….
Yet now, he had actually appeared in Phoenix Perch City. So, how could Chen Xi not be surprised and shocked by this?
But in a short time, all these emotions were replaced by clumps of wild joy and excitement. Because Chen Xi was really happy to meet Zhen Liuqing here.
His gaze was not calm anymore, and brought a hint of unseen happiness.
At almost the same time, Zhen Liuqing seemed to have noticed something as well, and he turned his head towards Chen Xi. However, he only glanced before turning around, and it seemed like he was completely unfamiliar with Chen Xi.
Chen Xi could not help but be a little stunned by this. Could he not recognize me?
He could not help but stand up and speak. "Miss Zhen."
The atmosphere in the hall was originally deathly silent, so when Chen Xi suddenly stood up at this moment and greeted Zhen Liuqing, it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
At almost the same time, the silver-haired young man's eyes narrowed. He glanced at the woman by his side, and then glanced at Chen Xi who was standing in the distance, and he seemed to be filled with interest.
At this moment, Yun Qing was shocked as well. However, when he realized that Chen Xi was only greeting the black-clothed woman, he heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he could not help but be a little confused. Could this kid know him?
"Young Master, it seems you have mistaken me for someone else?" The black-clothed woman frowned, and her clean and beautiful face was still as calm as it was now.
I wrongly thought he was someone else? Chen Xi's face froze. He looked at Zhen Liuqing for a long time before he said with a smile, "Miss Zhen, are you kidding?"
"Handid you?" The woman's leaf-shaped willow brows furrowed even tighter, and she said with a hint of displeasure, "Young Master, I'm not joking with people I don't know."
Chen Xi's heart sank, and she was a little shocked and confused. Could it be that I actually misinterpreted it with Zhen Liuqing?
On the other hand, at this moment, the gazes of everyone within the shooting hall of Chen Xi had changed from merely bringing shock to carrying a trace of doubt as well. It was a very strange expression.
"You know his name?" Suddenly, the young man spoke in a low and feminine voice, and carried a trace of unique charm.
The black-clothed woman seemed to have noticed something, and she turned around and said to the young man by her side, "I'm a little tired, I want to find a place to rest for a while."
As he spoke, he turned around with the intention to leave.
"Wait a minute. To me, it seems like this Daoist Fellow knows you well. ”The young man pulled the woman's arm and smiled as he spoke.
The woman's entire body stiffened, and she intended to fight free from it, but in the end she stopped. However, his expression was rather grim.
Chen Xi's eyebrows shot up. He glanced at the young man before glancing at the woman, and he said, "If I'm not mistaken, then this young miss must be my good friend, Zhen Liuqing."
A wisp of arch suddenly appeared in the corner of the young man's mouth, and he glanced at Chen Xi with a mocking smile as he said, "You're right, his name is really Zhen Liuqing."
Everyone in the hall was stunned when they heard this, and they were perplexed by this scene. Could it be that the child really knew the woman?
But if that was true, then why did the woman act like she didn't know him?
Such thoughts could not help but appear in everyone's heart. Could it be that there was something between the woman and the child? Now that he had someone new, he was deliberately acting as if he did not know her?
In an instant, they all felt excited. They clearly realized how shocking the identity of the young man was. If the child really loved the old woman on the young man's side, then there would really be a show for them to watch.
At this moment, the joy and happiness in Chen Xi's heart turned cold. Especially when he saw Zhen Liuqing acting as if he did not know him at all. His heart felt a bit cold, and it seemed like he was doused with a bucket of cold water.
He never imagined that the matter would develop to such an extent, never would he imagine that Zhen Liuqing would be completely heartless.
He was nothing like this in the past!
After all, when they were in the Darchu Dynasty, he actually gave up his qualifications to fight Qing Xiuyi at the Allstar Meeting for him.
Yet now, he was actually acting as if he did not know her….
The more he thought about this, the more his heart was in turmoil, and he felt an indescribable form of pain, causing his expression to gradually become gloomy.
He is not a person of romance, and he attaches great importance to the bonds of friendship along the way. Not to mention his relationship with Zhen Liuqing had long since surpassed the boundaries of ordinary relationships.
Now, having finally met many years later, he greeted her with a cold and indifferent expression and acted as if he did not know her. Such a huge blow caused Chen Xi to be unable to accept this reality for quite some time.
Wh why? Why is this happening?
He clearly admitted that he was Zhen Liuqing, yet why did he not know me?
Chen Xi suddenly took a deep breath. His gaze was like a bolt of lightning as he glanced at the young man by his side, and then his gaze descended once again onto Zhen Liuqing as he said in a low voice, "Is it because of him? Or maybe there is something you can't talk about that causes you to have no choice but to act this way? "
When he finished speaking, his voice carried a hint of hope. He really wished it was because of some secret, and he would not mercilessly refuse to recognize her as someone he knew.
“How laughable! Maybe something's wrong with you? "Zhen Liuqing laughed coldly.
These words alone caused Chen Xi's heart to feel heavy to the point of having difficulty breathing, and he could not hold his fists tightly and put in great effort to control his emotions.
"good. Fellow Daoist, we don't have time to play with you. "The young man suddenly grinned, then he raised his hand and pulled Zhen Liuqing into his embrace, then he looked at Chen Xi and teased. “In addition, if you want to pursue a woman in the future, then you have to choose the right target. I will let it go this time, but if it happens at a later time, then the consequences will be severe. "
By the time he saw Zhen Liuqing enter the young man's embrace, Chen Xi felt like a pin piercing into his heart, and an indescribable fury surged from his heart. He could hardly help but move against the young man, yet when he glanced at Zhen Liuqing's expression, his heart instantly became ice-cold as if he had fallen into an ice hole.
From beginning to end, he had not struggled at all, and even to the point that his face carried a wisp of intimate expression….
Crack down!
Chen Xi clenched her fists until her fingertips broke and turned temporarily, and her eyes were ice-cold to the limit.
The young man with the violet disciple and silver hair could not help but smile even more brilliantly when he saw this, and he glanced at Chen Xi with a look of pity. After which, he held onto Zhen Liuqing's waist as he turned around and slowly headed towards the second floor.
On the other hand, from start to finish, Zhen Liuqing had yet to turn around ….
Chen Xi stood there like a statue with an icy cold expression. No one knew what kind of pain and struggles he was going through in his heart, or what kind of anger, hatred, and frustration he was feeling!
When the young man left with Zhen Liuqing, the atmosphere in the hall instantly changed, and it became bustling and bustling once again.
However, their topic of conversation had changed.
"Ha huh! The boy was really trying to get something he didn't deserve. Does he not know whose he belongs to? "
“Someone should choose the right time to talk to a girl. He only had to tease Gongye Zhefu's woman right before Gongye Zhefu himself. Isn't that like seeking death? "
“It looks like I'm like this guy who lost his mind from seeing such beauty. His calmness was really too weak, he even dared to try and snatch the lady Gongye Zhefu. It was like playing with his life. Fortunately, Gongye Zhefu was broad-minded and not angry. Otherwise, how could he still be alive? "
"Indeed, Gongye Zhefu might not be bothered to make a fuss about it with someone like her, right?"
"Actually, do any of you know that child?"
"No, but he is definitely not a disciple of the noble lineage of the Imperial Region, otherwise, how could he not even know Gongye Zhefu?"
All of these discussions were like flies buzzing, and it caused Chen Xi's expression to become even gloomier. He did not mind being ridiculed and ridiculed by others, yet he could not accept this practical feeling of 'betrayed.
Gongye Zhefu's!
Chen Xi took a deep breath and worked hard to let herself keep her composure, and he turned around and sat quietly in place while a wisp of gloom that was impossible to remove was still left in the space between his eyebrows.
"Ha ha's. I never expected that my target this time had become Zhen Liuqing's friend, and even to the point that he acted as if he didn't know me just because of him …. "Chen Xi suddenly felt like laughing. He felt this fate was deliberately playing tricks on him, or perhaps punishing him?
It punished him for not looking for Zhen Liuqing for so many years!
“No matter what, you have to find out some things. Especially when it's related to 'feelings'. Don't do it to turn the situation around and do it just to give yourself freedom from it. "Yun Qing stared silently at Chen Xi for a long time before she finally spoke. His eyes carried a wisp of wisdom that could only be forged through age and experience. “Of course, the result may be a pleasant surprise. Who knows?"
